    Coming through Ohio tonight, heading north, near Findlay, the sunset was just awesome.
    Dark cluster of clouds blocking the Sun, with low rain clouds, a clear sky above, plenty of color, from horizon to horizon.
    Some one tell me they have photos!
    Although a camera, could never duplicate the eyes view.
     
    bzinger Thanks this.

    Coming back across the Bay Bridge in the evenings, there can be some nice ones.

    I've seen quite a few out west that were outstanding, but there was so many different things going on last night.
    The rays of the Sun, where like blades, coming from behind, the heavy dark storm clouds.
    There we're different height and cloud types all in different parts of the sky.
    The sky was clear blue, anywhere there were no clouds.
    There was so many different things going on at once, from horizon to horizon.
    The colors were fantastic.
    Some times I'm in awe, of the power of God, it was right there, I was looking, right at it.
    No way, an event like it, just happens.
    Hopefully someone will have pics, to verify my story.
    Cameras everywhere...except where you need them!

    SW Wyoming Sunset. I stuck around past sunset but it never generated great colors that I was hoping for. I guess there was too little dust and pollutants in the atmosphere. Anyway, here is one capture [in the cold]

    I think Missouri has the most flags along the interstates.
    It's always windy and they're erect and waving

    One of the best I've ever witnessed was on lookout pass going west from Montana into Idaho. Another was in Iowa just before the tornadoes hit. And then there's Alaska...
